"You also know the current situation of people's livelihood in the Dimensional City. This stagnant water needs some changes to make it flow. A floating population is a good way."
In response to Riveria's question, Takumi spread his hands and spoke.
"Indeed." Riveria nodded.
She had been dealing with the internal affairs of the Dimensional City, so she knew the current situation best.
Everything seemed to be normal, but in fact, as Takumi said, it was like a pool of stagnant water. There was no vitality at all.
Not to mention other things, the economic stagnation alone was very problematic.
The Dimensional City paid the Lizardmen wages, but apart from covering their daily expenses, the Lizardmen basically bought nothing. Instead of spending money, they saved it all.
As we all know, money can only generate value when it circulates.
From the perspective of the overall economic system, hoarding money is equivalent to destroying it. Therefore, the Lizardmen's practice of only saving without spending was not conducive to economic development.
Although Riveria could understand that the Lizardmen saved money mainly to buy a house after the construction projects were completed and then completely settle down, the problem was that they were too frugal in order to save. Unless it was absolutely necessary, they really wouldn't spend a penny.
It wasn't that there were no consumption items besides daily necessities in the Dimensional City. Snacks, clothes, furniture, electrical appliances, travel tools, and basically everything found in modern society were available, and the Lizardmen could buy them.
But the Lizardmen just didn't buy them, and they didn't even have the idea of buying them.
In their concept, survival was the most important thing, and whether they lived well or not was only secondary. Therefore, as long as they had surplus food, they would find ways to save it for emergencies.
This was undoubtedly a very bad trend for the economy of the Dimensional City.
After all, if everyone only produced but did not consume, then who would pay for what was produced?
Thinking of this, Riveria no longer hesitated, nodded, and said, "So, do you have any requirements for these recruitable personnel?"
Takumi thought for a while and said, "First of all, their character must be guaranteed. I don't want to see these people causing chaos in the Dimensional City."
"We also need them to have a sense of confidentiality. I am not ready to let the existence of the Dimensional City be made public for the time being, so this group of people must keep the secret."
"For the time being, these are the two conditions. Let's make a list first, and then I will choose from them."
"Okay, I'll keep an eye out," Riveria agreed. "But I have to explain this to Finn and Loki first, and I will need your help then."
Ideas are just ideas, but whether the matter can be accomplished depends on the consent of the people concerned and the Familia to which they belong. This required confessing the existence of the Dimensional City to the Familia executives and leaders like Finn and Loki.
It wasn't a big problem; it was just letting a few more people know about it. But how to convince them to let the members of the Familia go to the Dimensional City was something they had to think about carefully.
"No problem, I'll tell Loki when the time comes." Riveria nodded.
Seeing this, Takumi felt relieved.
With Riveria coming forward, it would not be difficult for the Loki Familia to accept it.
Immediately, Takumi began to think about what kind of work should be arranged for this group of people to bring out their maximum value.
Yes, Takumi decided to open up entry and exit permissions and introduce a floating population to the Dimensional City. In addition to stimulating people's livelihood, his plan was also based on the nature of the floating population itself.
Takumi wanted to use these adventurers from the Danmachi World to make up for the current shortage of manpower in the Dimensional City's external business.
Well, to put it more bluntly, he wanted to use these adventurers as his thugs.
Because from the beginning, Takumi went there for the strength of these adventurers.
Otherwise, if it was just a floating population to stimulate the development of the people's livelihood economy, Takumi could do it in any world. Introducing a floating population did not have to happen in the Danmachi World.
For example, the Harry Potter World and the Akame ga Kill World, which belonged to the two Dimensional Cities of Camelot, could have easily provided a group of people.
The reason why he did not do this, but went to great lengths to recruit people in the Danmachi World, was mainly because he took a fancy to the adventurers, who were considered to be the best combatants in all the worlds connected to the current Dimensional City.
After the adventurers arrived in the Dimensional City, most of them would only engage in combat occupations, which made it unlikely that they would compete with the existing residents of the Dimensional City for jobs.
He could copy the model of the Adventurer's Guild. Since the original intention of recruiting these adventurers was to treat them as mercenaries, the Guild model was just right.
The Dimensional City could also copy it and create a Dimensional Guild to be responsible for mobilizing these adventurers.
However, it could not be copied completely. At least the business of recycling dropped materials had little effect on the Dimensional City.
Recycling dropped materials could be said to be a core feature of Adventurer Guilds in various worlds. But obviously, for a highly self-sufficient Dimensional City, this business was not needed.
Because there was no such demand at all.
Even regarding materials from other worlds, the demand in the Dimensional City was not large, and it was impossible to recycle them in unlimited quantities for a long time.
Therefore, the material recycling business could be dispensed with, and bounties could be released when needed.
After thinking about it, Takumi wrote this plan down and told Riveria.
"It's totally doable, and it's very easy to do."
Riveria also agreed with the idea of establishing a Dimensional Guild.
Not only was it feasible, but it was also very simple to implement.
In the final analysis, the so-called Guild was actually just an office. As long as there was a counter and a receptionist, that was it.
The General Affairs Office of the Dimensional City just needed to send out a clerk to find a place to arrange office equipment. It wouldn't take much effort at all.
Anyway, in the initial stage, the tasks issued by the Dimensional Guild would basically only be those issued directly by the Dimensional City.
Therefore, the people who were originally from the Internal Affairs Office of the Dimensional City were responsible for managing this Guild, which happened to save the handover process.
If they needed to publish any tasks in the future, they could just send a file directly through the internal network.
Takumi nodded. "As long as it's easy to do, you can send a message to your family later and ask them to start decorating it."
"No problem."
After Riveria agreed, she turned around, took out a tablet-style dimensional terminal, and sent a message to the Dimensional City.
Seeing this, Takumi also controlled his own dimensional terminal with his mind.
